Just Incase

Certain products make our lives more efficient or better.  Incase does both.  This San Francisco based firm believes in “a better experience through good design”, and we here at The Manual, couldn’t agree more.

Plainly said, InCase has something for everybody.  Their bags, in addition to their mobile phone and tablet cases, make getting to the gym or away for a weekend, that much cooler.  They also stock a variety of chargers and colorful cables, so that you can always identify yours in the pile at the office, or at a friend’s house (you know that pile in a friend’s living room at a party).

Creative Director of Incase, Moses Aipa, grew up in Hawaii, where he attended one of the nation’s finest schools, Kamehameha.  Upon graduating with a joint-degree from University of San Francisco/California College of Arts, it’s no surprise that Moses is designing some of the most functional, yet form-forward products in the market today.

Most well known for their designs for all of your Apple products, they have also become quite well known for their recent collaborations with Warhol, Stussy, and Paul Rodriguez.

They also have a great new campaign called ‘RELEAFED’ where you can send in your old iPhone case and get $15 towards the purchase of a new one.

From artists work, bold colors or sleek tone-on-tone accessories, your options to express yourself with your tech gadgets, to a bag for a weekend getaways, are far more than just black.

Spring style: The blue dress shirt is the secret weapon of the season
This is the shirt every man needs in his closet, especially in the spring

There is the four-legged stool for men that refers to the four tailored garments every man should have in his closet. The charcoal suit, the blue suit, the gray suit, and the blazer. These allow you to be ready for everything, from the big meeting in the boardroom to the after-hours event, without spending a ton of money on a dozen suits. Versatility is key. The same concept exists for shirts. You need a handful of shirts that can be worn when pitching the big proposal in the office or grabbing drinks with friends. While the white shirt is the baseline shirt every man should have, there is one shirt that is even more important; the blue dress shirt for men is the secret weapon. It is versatile, attractive, and easy to wear. Here's what you need to know about the most vital shirt in your wardrobe.

Seiko adds gorgeous new dial colors to Presage Style60’s collection
The Presage collection is getting better by the day
Seiko Presage 2025

Seiko adds three new watches to the Presage Style60's collection with striking dial colors—green, yellow, and purple. Apart from reimagining the dial in different colors, the brand also revamped the design, merging retro aesthetics with the contemporary style for an elevated look. While this line was unveiled with a 40.5 mm casing, the brand downsized the casing to 39.55 mm in 2024. Like the models rolled out in 2024, the latest additions also feature a 39.5 mm casing, highlighted by bright dial colors.

In terms of design, the brand added a circular groove to the dial to create depth—a small detail that makes the front face look modern. And just above the 6 o’clock, there’s a small white date window that accentuates the beautiful contrast between the upper and lower sections.

Formex Space Glacier

Formex presents a new watch, the Space Glacier, in different sizes to diversify the Essence collection. Like the original model dating back to 2018, the 2025 edition stands out due to the Widmanstätten pattern, which is accentuated by a rough texture that adds depth to the front face. The crystal-like appearance is unique and varies from one model to the next.

This new addition draws some inspiration from older models launched in the past few years, such as the Essence Space Gold.
